Significance Plastics are a contaminant of emerging concern accumulating in marine ecosystems. tend to break down into small particles, called microplastics, which also enter the environment directly as fragments from variety sources, including cosmetics, clothing, and industrial processes. Given their ubiquitous nature dimensions, ingestion impact microplastics on life cause for concern, notably filter feeders. Oysters were exposed polystyrene microparticles, shown interfere with energy...

DOI: 10.2216/11-37Pseudo-nitzschia is a globally distributed diatom genus, some species of which produce (DA), the neurotoxin that causes poisoning. This toxin killed at least three humans in 1987, launching numerous studies concerning identification, distribution, ecology physiology spp. Since...
Marine plastic pollution is a major environmental issue. Given their ubiquitous nature and small dimensions, ingestion of microplastic (MP) nanoplastic (NP) particles subsequent impact on marine life are growing concern worldwide. Transfers along the trophic chain, including possible translocation, for which hazards less understood, also preoccupation. Effects MP have been studied animals through laboratory exposure, showing impacts feeding activity, reserve depletion inflammatory responses,...
SUMMARY The impact of diets upon the fatty acid composition haemocyte polar lipids and consequently immune parameters has been tested in oyster Crassostrea gigas clam Ruditapes philippinarum. Oysters clams were fed each three cultured algae: Chaetoceros calcitrans, which is rich 20:5(n-3) 20:4(n-6) poor 22:6(n-3) acids; T-Iso (Isochrysis sp.), deficient 20:4(n-6); Tetraselmis suecica, contains only small amounts 20:4(n-6). Fatty was greatly affected by diet. C. calcitrans maintained a higher...
Microplastics collected at sea harbor a high diversity of microorganisms, including some Vibrio genus members, raising questions about the role microplastics as novel ecological niche for potentially pathogenic microorganisms. In present study, we investigated adhesion dynamics crassostreae on polystyrene microparticles (micro-PS) using electronic and fluorescence microscopy techniques. Micro-PS were incubated with bacteria in different media (Zobell culture medium artificial seawater) or...
